Beliefs Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Even though people hold unto beliefs,
They will declare exist.
With interpretations of them.
Like a peace wished to exist.

Isn't that a belief?
Why is it resisted?

There are those with beliefs of love and hate.
With more hating to believe
There is a weakness expressed,
When one confesses to have love.

There is a sickness some accept,
Because someone has said
Sickness for them is to be expected.

Even though people hold unto beliefs,
They will declare exist.
With interpretations of them.
Like a peace wished to exist.

Isn't that a belief?
Why is it resisted?

And why is it some create their own conflicts?
As if not to do them
They will be neglected.
As if to exit from them with belief
A love and peace shared by all,
Will one day by all be accepted.

Isn't that a belief?
Why is it resisted?
And whose beliefs,
Have been made more realistic?
